sign expo orlando

[watchdaride]

Any one have any free tickets ( cost $40 ) for the sign expo in orlando april 23 .Not buying anything but i live in orlando would like to see where the sign industry is heading . Also do you know if they have any car wrapping seminars that week end ? thanks

your sign supply rep. should have tickets for you. I've got like 20 free tickets from various suppliers, but I'm uncertain if they're transferable. ..or even how to transfer them if they were, as it's part of the electronic registration process when I signup every year.

to my knowledge, they don't have wrap seminars BUT Arlon/Avery/3M/MacTac/everyone showcases the wrap process throughout every day of the expo and pull spectators from the crowd to try their hand at wrapping sections.

p.s. who's goin'? we starting a thread for ISA Expo yet? S101 party/gathering at Howl @the Moon Piano-Bar, maybe?

I'm giving a seminar on Effective Wrap Design on Thursday at 11:30. This is a design-only class though. Hope you can make it!

Cool. I'm flying down Wedsnesday as well, and the back up Thursday evening. The show in Vegas last year was huge - I've never been to the one in Orlando but I'd bet its just as big.

 

[synergy_jim]

I've been to orlando twice. Its huge. I'll be there this year hanging out at the Coastal (Precision Board) both.

The wife and I were going to go down this week for our 10th anniversary, but we decided to make it a "business trip" and wait till next week and go for the expo. We're gonna hit Disney Sun-Wed then check out the expo Thursday probably. I got tickets from Advantage, but I didn't really look into classes or anything, just going to check out the exhibit hall and look at the equipment. I haven't been to one in 8 years or so, so I figured it was about time.

If only it was a few weeks later as we are heading to Orlando for the first time May 15th for a little R and R. It would have been great to see how you guys put on a show
Maybe next year

The boss and I are coming in early Wednesday. We have a business meeting on Lake Buena Vista golf course.

 

[Speedsterbeast]

Flying out Sunday morning. Hitting Cocoa Beach for some surfing.
Then three days at the show.
Vegas was great, but Im looking to pull the trigger on a laminator ad ACM cutter asap.

 

[Saw Trax]

We'll be there! Just packed and shipped out our saw and booth!

 

[TheSnowman]

I. CAN. NOT. WAIT. for Orlando. After the cursed line of idiotic customers I've had today, I'm about to lock the door and head down two days early. Where did all my "normal" customers go!? I've gotta get out of a downtown area.

 

[Dan Antonelli]

I few a few free passes to my seminar. If anyone wants one, PM me - thanks!

[SignManiac]

We'll go back to basics and discuss what goes into an effective vehicle wrap, why branding is so important, how to present your ideas to clients, and common pitfalls to avoid. We'll also explore ways in which your shop can effectively market wrap design, and what you need to do to stand out among the rest of your competitors.

• Learn the design basics
• Understand how to effectively market vehicle wrap advertising
• Learn the foundations for effective brand implementation
